Here in New York, Gothamist is reporting federal immigration officers were able to enter private areas of city shelters or obtained resident information without presenting judicial warrants at least five times earlier this year. That’s despite sanctuary city laws barring city staffers from allowing immigration officers to enter private areas of city property.

Meanwhile, Human Rights Watch is calling on Congress to investigate the brutality of the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement activities, writing, “Allowing masked, unidentified agents to roam communities and apprehend people without identifying themselves erodes trusts in the rule of law and creates a dangerous vacuum where abuses can flourish, exacerbating the unnecessary violence and brutality of the arrests.”
